The Browns traded former Steelers QB Kenny Pickett yesterday to the Raiders for a fifth-round pick, getting the better deal, according to Ben Solak of ESPN. Assessing the trade, the outlet gave the Browns an A grade for the move. The Raiders, on the other hand, earned a D for acquiring the former first-rounder.

“I think it’s a pretty big overpay for a QB2 who isn’t even an above-average QB2, but it’s tough to fault any team for caring about its quarterback depth chart so desperately”, writes Solak about the Raiders’ acquisition of Kenny Pickett.
